Men Who Know They Are Watched: Some Benefits And Costs Of Jailing For Nonpayment Of Support, David L. Chambers

Articles

Suppose that by some mysterious process the police in your town received each Monday a list of all the robberies and burglaries committed during the preceding week and the names of the persons who committed them. Suppose further that the list itself was admissible in evidence at trial and generally led to conviction. And suppose finally that persons considering committing offenses knew that the police had such a list and used it, relentlessly tracking down the miscreants named on it. Under such circumstances, one would probably expect that many potential offenders in the town with the magical list would resist …

Book Review, James R. Elkins

Vanderbilt Law Review

Shaffer suggests a new paradigm for law practice that is not based on rigid control of clients in an impersonal attorney-client relationship. He argues forcefully that disregard for the client's emotions ignores important "facts" that can be used in the law office and the legal process. Shaffer's work suggests the possibility of gaining personal satisfaction and of providing more adequate legal services by actively counseling and understanding clients. Such a humanistic approach to the practice of law can be rooted only in an awareness of the psychological and social defenses erected against both the attorney's clients and the attorney's impact …

The State Vs. The Family: Does Intervention Really Spare The Child?, Susan R. Rogers

Mercer Law Review

Courts all across this country are attempting to balance the interests of children and parents. It has long been the general rule that natural parents, if considered fit, have the right to the custody of their children, uninterrupted even by a state exercising its parens-patriae power. This right of the natural parent has traditionally taken precedence over the interests of everyone else, including the best interests of the child.

There has been a recent trend, however, toward paying more attention to what the court feels is in the best interests of the child. Although the law is still weighted in …

A Follow-Up Study Of Children Released From Child Care Centers, Tamsel Tack Cabrera

Dissertations and Theses

Concerned by the increase in the average daily populations at MacLaren School for Boys and Hillcrest School for Girls, Children's Services Division (CSD)has requested research related to children who have been released from child care centers and private institutions.

Child care centers were originally developed as alternatives to the state institutions. As children were diverted to various child care centers, the populations of these two institutions decreased, and plans were made to merge the two schools, thus closing Hillcrest. With the increase in populations at both schools, this is no longer feasible.

As much time and effort is spent in …

Community Legal Workers At Parkdale Community Legal Services October 1977, Katie Mcgovern, Frederick H. Zemans

Books

Since its opening in September 1971, Parkdale Community Legal Services has served as both a neighbourhood law office and as Osgoode Hall Law School's first clinical training setting. Law students have been the primary deliverers of legal.services, with a growing number of staff lawyers, articling students, and practitioners supervising the student caseload. But most law students spend only one semester at Parkdale; therefore the staff lawyers and especially the community legal workers must provide continuity within the office and serve as the conduit to the Parkdale community.

The Halifax North End Project, Jim Ortego

Dalhousie Law Journal

Criminology is the unhappiest ship afloat in the sea of social science research. No one has been able to find the answer to the two simple questions that are a permanent plague: Why do people commit crime? How do you persuade them not to do it again? Each generation or so, any number of experts from diverse disciplines and political philosophies burst upon criminology with the answer to the crime problem. In the last fifty years they have taken the discipline, such as it is, through borstal training, open institutions, guided group interaction, open ended research designs and any number …

A Rebuttal To The Attack On The Indeterminate Sentence, Sue Titus Reid

Washington Law Review

As the preceding sentence indicates, the indeterminate sentence has recently come under attack. Although criticisms that should be considered seriously can be directed at the indeterminate sentence, the time for its abolition has not yet arrived. This article will discuss the history and treatment philosophy underlying the indeterminate sentence, but will not consider all the objections to the indeterminate sentence. Rather, the focus will be on the philosophical and practical problems of implementing the treatment philosophy. It will conclude that the system itself should not be viewed as solely responsible for its shortcomings because abuses of the system, as well …

Juvenile Court: The Legal Process As A Rehabilitative Tool, Bobbe Jean Ellis

Washington Law Review

The author's study, reported in this comment, had two objectives. First, it attempted to determine whether a juvenile's experience with the traditional sociological model or with the legal due process model is more likely to motivate him to feel positively toward the legal system. Second, this study attempted to measure the attitudes of the professionals in the juvenile system (judges, attorneys, and caseworkers) toward the two models. The results of the study, although not all were statistically significant, indicated that although the professionals favored the traditional sociological model, the use of the legal-due process model was more likely to result …

Social Planning In Halifax-Dartmouth: Fact Or Fiction?, Timothy T. Daley

Dalhousie Law Journal

Social planning is a by-product of the recent trend toward comprehensive community development planning. It is still in its formative stages and is therefore experiencing the growing pains characteristic of most new planning processes, including poor coordination, distrust and misunderstanding. Added to these difficulties is a second deterrent to proper social planning, namely, an increasing demand to react quickly to problems and make decisions without waiting for input from planners.
